On behalf of all the other work-from-home cannabis enthusiasts today, thank you. :) Read more

Trying to justify it by saying these are “industry-standard established ranges based on experience” is especially fucked-up, given the strength of their resumes. He had one movie screenwriting credit and one “story by” credit prior to Crazy Rich Asians. She’d been writing for television for two decades. It’s a flimsy… Read more

Naturally, Lim walked away, and a few months later Chiarelli offered her half of his salary to reach some semblance of parity. She still said no Read more

I have zero trust that men would take this medication correctly so I wouldn’t bet my reproductive freedom on it.   They’d have to create an IUD version for dudes.  At the same time I’m all for sharing the fun side effects of hormonal BCs with the male population. Male contraceptives seem odd to me given how easy… Read more

FTFY.

I still remember when Peppa told Barbara Streisand that she wouldn’t be switching seats with her so that the camera was on Babs’ good side for their interview. That shit took some major pig ovaries! Read more

Fast Times came out in 1982, and Operation Rescue started in ‘86. Considering the Southern Baptist Convention was publicly *in favor* of abortion rights through the 70s, Fast Times may have come out during a brief window where pro-choice was the accepted norm in the US.  Read more

Please don’t forget one of the earliest on-TV depictions of a woman having an abortion: Maude. The episode was called Maude’s Dilemma, and it aired in 1972. Roe was decided in 1973. Read more

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend also had an abortion handled in a great way. Read more

Thank you so much for this article! There is so little mention of this scene and how important it is to our vibrant, Puertorrican community. And I believe the correct term is “cacerolazo” and not “calderazo.” Thank you again! Read more

I love how these fuckers morph into Clarence Darrow or Thurgood Marshall at the hint of an accusation. They really think lawyering their way out of it is the solution. Evidence! Witnesses! Sworn statements! They turn an HR investigation into the Simpson trial. Read more

This district is in Luzerne County, PA. A few years ago, two judges were convicted in a “Kids for Cash” scheme, in which they jailed juveniles for minor offenses, like petty theft/shoplifting. Luzerne County voted overwhelmingly to elect Trump, and a few months ago, Trump held one of his hate rallies there. Do the… Read more

Agreed in the broad application on a national scale. This particular article is focused on Brooklyn, but I see this same co-opting the left happening locally in the PNW too. Google Deep Green Resistance for the transphobic libertarian environmentalist variety. We’re already fighting the creep. Read more

I fucking hate the dirtbag left. I’m an anarchist, and I have a shitload of respect for almost all of my leftist peers, from auth-coms to syndicalists. But tankies, nazbols, and the dirt bag left can all fuck right off. Read more

While I think a lot of candidates made good showings for themselves tonight, I’m inclined to agree. If I had to vote in the primary tomorrow, I’d vote for Warren.

That said, I found myself thinking back to the utter circus that was the Republican primary debates in 2012 and feeling pretty damn good about the future.… Read more

As a public defender, even though I don’t currently practice in Queens (though I know it well!), I cannot tell you how incredible and amazing this is. This victory is going to radically change things for the better. Tiffany is the real deal - she’s done the work. She knows what needs to be done on a day-to-day level.… Read more
